Menominee Pier Light

The Menominee North Pier lighthouse is located in the harbor of Menominee, Michigan. The station was first lit in 1877. The current structure and its still operational light was lit in 1927, and automated in 1972. It is also sometimes called the "Menominee (Marinette) North Pierhead Light". The foundation is a concrete pier. The 34-foot (10 m) tall octagonal cast iron building is marked in a distinctive red, with a black lantern and white base. A Fourth Order Fresnel lens was originally installed, but was replaced with a modern 12-inch (300 mm) acrylic optic lens. The original lens is now at Sand Point Light in Escanaba, Michigan. The focal plane is 46 feet (14 m). The building originally had a diaphone fog signal structure attached, and it was later removed. The iron catwalk was removed in 1972 when the light was automated. This light is paired with a large rear range light. That is denominated the Menominee (Marinette) North Pier light, and is also an active aid to navigation. Its focal plane 59 feet (18 m), and its characteristic is a continuous red light. The tower is a 50-foot (15 m)square pyramidal steel skeletal tower with gallery. It is painted red, and located on the Menominee North Pier about 600 feet (180 m) from the pierhead light. It may be accessed by walking the pier. The site is open, but the tower is closed.

Menominee River State Recreation Area

Menominee River State Recreation Area is a state-managed protected area located in Breitung and Norway townships in Dickinson County and Faithorn Township in Menominee County, Michigan, southeast of Iron Mountain. It is 2,354 acres (953 ha) in area and is currently undeveloped. The park comprises a 145.35-acre (58.82 ha) tract along 1.5 miles (2.4 km) of the Menominee River south of the City of Norway and the 2,208.83-acre (893.88 ha) Quiver Falls Tract along eight miles (13 km) of the river farther downstream. In 2016, an additional 525-acre (212 ha) of Escanaba State Forest land was transferred from the Forestry Division to the DNR's Parks and Recreation Division and became the Pemene Falls Unit of the park, matching a similarly named unit on the Wisconsin side of the river. According to the Michigan Department of Natural Resources (DNR), the Piers Gorge tract includes "whitewater rapids and waterfalls, and contains some of the fastest-moving water in Michigan or Wisconsin. It is not navigable for general canoeing, but has become a popular destination for expert class kayakers seeking challenging Class IV whitewater. The parcel also contains good wildlife viewing opportunities for eagles, osprey and waterfowl, as well as public fishing access." The DNR notes the Quiver Falls parcel as containing "river frontage on both sides of the Menominee River, scenic rocky gorges with significant drops in the river and waterfalls. The area is popular with hunters and anglers, as well visitors because of the scenic sightseeing opportunities." The lands on the Wisconsin side of the river are part of the Menominee River State Park and Recreation Area and managed by the Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources. Both parks are managed together by the departments of both states. History The Menominee River State Recreation Area was officially created on November 10, 2011, when DNR Director Rodney Stokes authorized the purchase of 2,354 acres (953 ha) of Wisconsin Electric Power Company land along the Menominee River which forms the boundary between Michigan and Wisconsin. The total purchase price for the acreage on the Michigan side of the river was $2,534,400 and was funded from the Michigan Natural Resources Trust Fund and DNR Land Exchange Facilitation Fund.

Meridian-Baseline State Park

Meridian-Baseline State Park is a historic preservation area covering 108 acres (44 ha) in Ingham County and Jackson County, Michigan, containing the intersection of the Michigan meridian and the baseline used for the Michigan Survey. The state park has two monuments that show where the two mismatched baselines meet the principal meridian at the North Initial Point and South Initial Point. History Efforts to acquire the site were initiated by state and private interests in the 1960s. In the 1960s and 1970s, land was acquired and money was raised toward establishing a Museum of Surveying on the site. Those efforts were abandoned when the Michigan Society of Professional Surveyors opened a museum in Lansing, Michigan, in 1981. Although the site was landlocked for many years, in 2014, the Michigan Department of Natural Resources acquired additional property allowing public access from Meridian Road near the Jackson–Ingham county line. Improvements made at the site included trail clearing and construction of a 10-car parking lot. After road signs, trail markers, and a bridge over the creek were added, the State of Michigan in conjunction with Ingham and Jackson counties, opened the new access to the park on October 12, 2015. In 2016, an additional boardwalk was completed in the wetlands near the markers.

Metamora-Hadley Recreation Area

Metamora-Hadley State Recreation Area is a state-managed protected area in the U.S. state of Michigan, located in Hadley Township in Lapeer County, northwest of Detroit. It is located eight miles south of the city of Lapeer. The closest urban community is the village of Metamora, Michigan, which lies to its east and is used in its postal address. The park is 723 acres (2.93 km2) in area and has 214 camping sites distributed across a "north" and "south" campground, and one cabin. The north campground has larger lots which can accommodate larger trailers than the south campground. There is a six-mile (10 km) nature trail, as well as picnic areas, a beach with boat rentals, and a camp store. The recreation area lies around Lake Minnewanna, an 80-acre (320,000 m2) man-made lake. History In its first stages, Metamora-Hadley was laid out differently from today. The original beach was where the current north campground is, and the present-day beach was forest. The drive behind the campground host spot was the original location of the dumping station. Lake Minnewanna was made by damming the creek that flows through the area.

Metropolitan Building (Detroit)

The Element Detroit at the Metropolitan is a high-rise hotel, formerly the Metropolitan Building, a historic office building located on a triangular lot at 33 John R Street in downtown Detroit, Michigan, near Grand Circus Park. The building was built in 1924 and finished in 1925. It stands at 15 stories and was once occupied by shops, offices, and the facilities of jewelry manufacturers and wholesalers leading it to also be known as the "Jeweler's Building". The manufacture of luminous watch dials in the building left behind several toxic substances that have thwarted redevelopment plans. Architects Weston and Ellington designed it in a Neo-Gothic style. The exterior of the building is faced with brick, granite, and terra cotta. The building closed in 1977. In March 2010, the Downtown Development Authority voted to install safety scaffolding and netting on the building to prevent parts of the facade from falling. In September 2013, the city requested bids for removal of asbestos and other hazardous materials from the building to determine if it should be demolished or restored. The property was offered to Rock Ventures, owned by developer Dan Gilbert, however the company declined to take ownership of the structure. Earlier, Bruce Schwartz of Bedrock Real Estate Services, one of Rock Ventures subsidiaries, said that part of the building could be demolished to construct a public space, lofts and offices. However, he later said the company would be open to restoring the structure. In March 2015, the Downtown Development Authority approved a $23.2 million renovation plan to create 71 apartments along with commercial and retail space on the bottom two floors. In May 2016, it was announced that the building would be converted to a hotel, Element Detroit at the Metropolitan. The 100,000 square-foot building opened in December 2018 as a 110-room extended-stay hotel, with 2,000 square feet of meeting space on the second-floor, 7,000 square feet of retail on the ground floor and lower level, and a roof patio on the 11th floor.

Michigan Alpha Chapter House of Phi Delta Theta

The Phi Delta Theta House located at 1437 Washtenaw Ave., Ann Arbor, Michigan, is a splendid example of Georgian Revival architecture. The house, finished in 1903, is on the Michigan Register of Historic Places. It is located near the southeast edge of the University of Michigan's Central Campus. History The Michigan Alpha chapter built their Georgian Revival style house between 1902 and 1903 as the fraternity's first permanent house on campus. Phi Delta Theta was the seventh fraternity established at the University of Michigan, installed on November 28, 1864. The house was built with funds from alumni, faculty members and active chapter members. The three-story house was designed by Alpheus W. Chittenden and built by Koch brothers construction firm. It replaced a mansion built by University of Michigan Librarian Andrew Ten Brook in the 1860s. The house was constructed with red brick on a raised foundation featuring a projecting central portico entrance supported with doric columns. The house has thirteen bedrooms and can accommodate more than thirty residents. On March 22, 1983, the Michigan State Historic Preservation Office placed the house on the Michigan Register of Historic Places. The fraternity house has significance as an early Georgian Revival style residence and recalls one of the University of Michigan's oldest social fraternities. In the early 2000s, the Michigan Alpha chapter spent approximately $500,000 to completely renovate the house and restore its historic integrity. Elements of the interior finish were modified following major fires in the early 1970s and building code upgrades during the recent renovation; however, most of the original floor plan remains unchanged.

Michigan Assembly Plant

Michigan Assembly Plant, formerly known as Michigan Truck Plant, is a Ford Motor Company assembly plant in Wayne, Michigan. The plant employs approximately 5,600 hourly employees and 350 salaried employees (June 2025), comprises three main buildings with 5,000,000 sq ft (460,000 m2) of factory floor space and is located adjacent to Wayne Stamping & Assembly. The plant was built in 1957 and has seen many expansions and upgrades. It currently produces the Ford Bronco and Ranger. History The plant opened in 1957, as the Michigan Station Wagon Plant producing the Mercury Colony Park station wagon. In 1964 the plant was re-tooled to produce pickup trucks, producing the first F-100. In 1965, the 100,000th truck rolled off the line. In 1968 two large additions were made to the plant that increased overall capacity. The plant was expanded again in 1974, 1991 and 1996. In 1997, the plant began producing SUVs, and in 2010 was re-tooled again to produce the Focus. By late 2010, Ford completed a $550 million renovation, enabling the plant to change production between various models without significant downtime and to produce gas-powered cars as well as battery electric, hybrid and plug-in hybrid variations. The renovation also included a 500-kilowatt solar panel system and ten electric vehicle charging stations for recharging electric part-transport trucks running between adjacent facilities. With these upgrades, it manufactured the third-generation North American Ford Focus from December 14, 2010, until May 4, 2018. Ford reintroduced the Ford Ranger pickup in the North American market for the 2019 model year with the Bronco to follow in year 2021, and they are produced at the Wayne plant. The launch of the Bronco was delayed to the end of summer 2021 due to coronavirus-related supplier issues. The plant currently has 2.8 million square feet of floor space and a capacity of 5,300 units per week.

Michigan Career and Technical Institute

Michigan Career and Technical Institute (MCTI) is a public vocational school in Plainwell, Michigan. It is located on 72 acres (29 ha) of land with 700 feet (210 m) of accessible frontage on Pine Lake. The school is an extension of the Michigan Department of Health and Human Services which works with Michigan Rehabilitative Services in order to serve the citizens of Michigan by rehabilitating and/or training students who come from poorer communities, are recovering addicts, veterans, or have disabilities, for employment in occupations that are relevant in today's job market. History MCTI was founded in 1944 by the W. K. Kellogg Foundation which leased the facilities to the State of Michigan in order to rehabilitate returning World War II veterans and other Michigan citizens. The property and facilities were deeded to the state of Michigan in 1947. In 1952, the Michigan Board of Education was established as a state institution and named Michigan Veteran's Vocational School. The name changed in 1959 to Michigan Rehabilitation Institute and a 350-bed dormitory was constructed in 1964. The name was changed again in 1968 to State Technical Institute and Rehabilitation Center (STIRC) and, in 1971, the first female student was enrolled. 1974 saw the addition of a health and recreation complex, which features a library, gymnasium, Olympic-sized indoor swimming pool, weight room, archery range, and even a bowling alley. In 1995, the name was changed once again to Michigan Career and Technical Institute (MCTI), what it is known as today. The Pine Lake Family Center was built in 1999 providing housing and daycare for those with families attending MCTI. Academics The school is accredited by the North Central Association on Accreditation and School Improvement (NCA CASI), as well as the Commission on Accreditation of Rehabilitation Facilities (CARF). MCTI is operated under the Michigan Department of Health and Human Services. Campus The campus consists of one main building which contains the student dormitories, the majority of the classrooms, as well as the cafeteria and indoor leisure activities; and several smaller peripheral buildings which include the Grounds Maintenance classroom and the Pine Lake Apartments. The surrounding grounds feature a lakeside frontage, a baseball diamond, basketball court, tennis court and other outdoor fun time areas. Student life The students are represented by a student government consisting of the Student Council (representatives from each course), the Hall Senate (representatives from each residence hall, who also act in a role of Resident Advisors in other colleges), and the Student Court (which acts as a court of second instance). The Veterans League, though not a part of the Student Government, per se, is also very influential in student life. Approximately 500 students attend MCTI at any given time. They also host a summer camp in July called the Pine Lake Experience. References External links [2]
